Xalan 2.1 is a really old version of Xalan release. JDK 1.5 (Assuming it is Sun's JDK 1.5) is shipped with a much later version of Xerces and Xalan.
You don't need xerces.jar in the classpath, when you use JDK 1.5. If you want to use older version of xerces, add it to endorsed directory.

If so why ? i think jdk1.5 also comes with xerces by default . so again xerces.jar is needed? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Xalan-2.1-tf3728662.html#a10436325 Sent from the Xalan - J - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
